ORDER

Alter concluding that the defendants’ convictions should be affirmed, we ordered a limited remand with regard to the sentences of defendants King, Smith, Keith McGee, Flozell McGee, Brim, McKinzie and Banks so that the district judge could determine whether the sentences he imposed were appropriate, given that the federal sentencing guidelines are no longer mandatory. See United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005).

On limited remand under United States v. Paladino, 401 F.3d 471 (7th Cir. 2005), the district court was “unable to say that it would have imposed the same sentences in this unusual drug conspiracy case if it had known that the Sentencing Guidelines were merely advisory” and requested that the cases be “fully remanded for new re-sentencing proceedings.”

All parties were offered the opportunity to respond before final resolution of the appeals. The defendants argue that their sentences should be vacated and their cases remanded for resentencing, and the government does not object to the district judge’s request for a full remand. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the sentences of defendants King, Smith, Keith McGee, Flozell McGee, Brim, McKinzie and Banks are VACATED, and their cases are REMANDED for re-sentencing.
